I wrote this for my daughter last year.She's the world to me.

From the joyous time your child comes into this world
You never knew there could be such a perfect, little girl
The awe you see as she stretches her hands and little feet
The magic you share, when the first time your eyes shall meet
Giving her all of your unconditional love
Just as she's protected by a white dove
As she gets older through the years
Let her know you're there for her through the smiles and the tears
Watching her grow day by day
Changing before your eyes in the most beautiful way
Instill in her the dreams of life,love, and happiness
Giving her all the values that life can posess
Teach her to be anything her heart desires
Teach her to chase her dreams like raging fires
Show her she can be anything she wants to be
From a president, to a star, or even a queen
Teach her to have faith that life can be good
Tell her how much about her you've understood
As she grows older through the years
Teach her it's ok to shed her tears
For the day will come when she will leave you behind
And you hope all that you've taught her, is easy to find
From newborn to woman is a most cherished thought to hold
From birthday's until the time that they are old
Knowing that you love her and care for her as no other
Showing that is why you became a mother
For the day will come when she'll take flight
And make you proud, joyous, and loving in every sight.

Don't worry about "forms."  In this you state clearly for the child what it is to be a woman with a child who will grow to be a woman.  Excellent.

Sounds like both of you have enjoyed every minute of it...I was just telling my son that he should cherish the time with his son and daughter because they grow up so fast...mine sure did...James

A very loving and tender write that your daughter will one day appreciate the depth of your love for her. This really tugged at my harp strings. A beautiful expression of maternal love. God bless you both!

Love & Eternal Light,
